Summary

Jonny and Richard wonder what Shakin' Stevens drives and conclude that it must be some sort of bad Cadillac. Also in this festive-ish episode, the Suggs scale of jerky singers, the money musicians make from Christmas songs, a new and extremely stupid seasonal lyric changing game, the annoyance of tiny ice cubes, how to get rid of things you don't need, and Jonny's eventful trip to Somerset in his Dodge Charger. Plus, Richard has found a flaw with the otherwise fabulous Bentley Mulsanne, Volkswagen seems to be giving its cars nocturnal monobrows, and our first father and son listeners' stories section brings us tales of Germanic voice recognition and a restomodded lawnmower.


Massive thanks to everyone who has supported Smith and Sniff this year. We really do appreciate your high tolerance for our meandering output. There'll be more of the same, and hopefully some new developments, in 2022.

which two friends talk about cars and a little bit too much about shaking

0:07.8

Stevens. I'm starting to feel Christmassy and which is kind of convenient

0:17.1

really and I heard those shaking Stevens song over there and I remind him of

0:22.4

how funny the music video is. I forgot how jerky shaking Stevens is. It's

0:27.5

very jerky. He's as jerky as Suggs. No. If it was like a boat it's like a

0:33.2

boat for a scale of jerky. Yeah. Well it's the Suggs scale isn't it? It's the

0:37.6

Suggs jerkiness. He's not as jerky as Suggs. Maybe he incertus. Maybe it's the

0:42.6

Curtis scale. He incertus yes. But he incertus is more jittery I would say. Suggs is

0:48.6

your angular movement king. He's a sort of diagonal shoulders. Yeah. I'm

0:56.1

thinking shaking Stevens. Actually shaking Stevens might be a little bit more

0:59.3

like someone keeps licking a nine-volt battery. Well when you're trying to

1:06.3

sing a jolly Christmas song he is so good. He's proper like whatever he is

1:10.6

Swansea Speck Elvis. Yeah. Yeah. It's a good song but the girl who is I think

1:17.4

they filmed it in Lapland or somewhere. The girl that's in the slay with him in

1:20.6

the video. You have to watch the music video. Honestly it looks like you know

1:24.0

when you've been you've been hit in the face by a powerful fast-traveling

1:29.2

football on a really cold day and it smacks and it hurts for so long. You know

1:37.2

when it throps it's sort of throbs and glows. That's what that's sort of what

1:41.2

her face looks like. So I always get the impression that I've been some sort of
